Details: Growing up in a household with 10 kids, CeCe Winans no doubt got really good at sharing. Through the years she's happily shared the spotlight with her big brother Benjamin (that's BeBe to you), and she's graciously stood in the shadow cast by her better-known friend, Whitney Houston. With her second solo project, though, Winans proves she's got plenty to say and is perfectly comfortable going it alone.The 13 (yes, 13!) tracks on Everlasting Love shift seamlessly back and forth between themes of spiritual encouragement and gentle admonition. And while she's a woman who's not afraid to tell it like it is, don't worry because Winans' exhortations go down easy when coated with her silky smooth vocals. In spite of the album's uncompromising message, though, some gospel purists are still sure to complain that with this more contemporary sound, Winans is straying too far from her gospel roots. The sound may be more current, but the lyrics are still packed with truth. And the prize at the bottom of the Cracker Jack box? These songs, more so than her previous solo release which featured several traditional hymns, have broader appeal and the potential to speak to not just Christians but non-Christians, too, which really can't be a bad thing.Winans opens with the jazzy soul of "Well, Alright," urging listeners to hold on during difficult times, and then there's the soothing sound of the evangelistic "What About You."
